The relentless night; a stranger in sight...
A flash of those swift limbs
Trepidation mounting to the brim,
The heart's tempo on a surge
Beads of sweat on the verge!
The darkness spells; a stranger far away yells...
Scurrying footsteps echoing in the by lanes
Blood gushing through those throbbing veins,
The mind peers for a moment of sanity
The spinning body holding onto gravity!
Hooded emotions impede; a stranger concedes...
An empty silence resonates hard
There wasn't anyone from the very start,
Who was it with that quick pace
The disguised stranger with no face!
The realisation pierces; a stranger emerges...
Meet your fears, abandon those lies
Strengthen each time your heart cries,
Clenched feelings will never set you free
Tell that stranger that he is a part of me!
Tell that stranger that he is a part of me!
